I'm a Pwincess, who lives on adrenaline rush. Hahaha. I enjoy a good movie, good food and good fight! This blog is created as an avenue for me to jot down my thoughts. Love It. Hate It. I don't freaking care.

I'm reading a new book. Started it last weekend but still haven't get through the 1st chapter. Too caught up with work. And I tried reading it at night tapi buku yg bace saye...huuuu~ sleep comes too easily these days. Do u know that human beings need an average 10-15 mins of tossing and turning before actually sleep? If you are the type that goes to lala land immediately after your head touches the pillow, then you are sleep deprived. Like me...hahaha never thought I'd be in that category! ;p

Anyways, my book is called "Don't Be Sad"...a translation of the book written in Arabic, "La Tahzan"...i first heard about it when i was going through a rough time mid last year. A friend suggested it to me. That same friend forwarded me the e-book version. I dunno bout you guys, but I never liked reading ebook...saket mata kot...adehhh...luckily, my friend Amir have a copy of the book and lend it to me last week [thanks Amir!]. So far I love what I've read...can hardly wait to finish the whole book...just needed to find the time to finish it all up. I highly recommend that you guys read it. It gives a new perspective on how you should approach your life [chewahh...padahal 1st chapter pun x habes lagi..haha]

I dunno when i'll finish reading the book...terlalu penat la lately...and this weekend will be dedicated solely to my girl, Mimie. Anything you wanna do babe, I'm all game! [and yes i know babe, he's a big time A-hole] adehhhh laa...ok folks, need to go back to work...rase macam nak balik on time today...then i can go pick Mama up and straight to see Mimie...perhaps later I'll be able to finish up the book...*sigh*

Nyways, college years sgt menareks...the ups and downs...and meeting a certain someone..[I'll always be grateful for that, despite what we're going through] and make new friends..gaduh dgn assistant Dean/Dean/VP pasal office politics...hehehe..I missed those times...coz back then the major issues we faced are peanuts compared to now...assignment x siap la..baju ape nak pakai esok..buat script and acting in plays..exams..denda sebab sneaked out from campus gi celebrate new year at KLCC...muahaha those were the days...

To those who will be embarking on college years I bid you good luck...enjoy it while it lasts coz it sure is 1000 times sweeter than working life...hahaha

Ahhhhh how i love the Oscars! heee This year I rooted for Avatar to win best picture and Sandra Bullock, Best Actress...[dun pretty much care for any other categories...muahahaha] Annyyywaaayyyy, Avatar didn't win Best Picture but it snagged 3 awards that nite...best cinematography, best art direction and best visual effects. The movie Hurt Locker won the award for best picture...a story based on Iraq War...hmmm harus tengok nih...i suke movie ganas2..heee. Best director is won by Katheryn Bigelow, the ex wife of James Cameron...best gile kalahkan your ex husband in front of millions of TV viewer kan! heee [and Katheryn sgt hot walaupun dah 58 years old! sweet!]

The Blind Side: I watched the movie at Mama's house during one of our Fri Nite gatherings...the girls was bz talking about vacay [as usual]...and i was tired of listening to all the plans...asik2 masuk topik lain then balik semula ke vacay sampai lost track of the conversation...hahaha so, i shifted my focus on the movie...sgt best ok! i bg 5/5 stars....shining2 lagik...I have always loved Sandra Bullock...she's very spontaneous in her acting and so funny...haha...tapi dalam citer Blind Side nih die punye character sgt best. The movie was based on a true story about this Touhy family who took a black boy into the family and treat him like one of their own...family ni sgt kaya...husband die ex NFL player ke hape ntah...and the whole family likes to sit together in front of the TV and watched football games....and then there was this boy Michael Oher had to endure all the hardships any young boy shouldn't have. He went to the same fancy schools as the Touhy kids. To cut the story short, Leigh Anne Touhy played by Sandra Bullock took pity on Michael and took him into the family. One day at a football practise she saw the potential of a great football player in Micheal and the whole story begins...best gile citer ni...but what intrigued me the most is the character played by Sandra Bullock...the mother hen as another way to put it...how she kept the family together and accept Michael without any prejudices. Now that's a woman I would like to become...you guys should see the movie and then you'll understand what I mean.

Haaaa kan dah melalut...ok back to the Oscars...Sandra Bullock sgt cantek and die punye acceptance speech is so funny and touching at the same time [nape la artis kat Malaysia ni xleh nak bagi acceptance speech yg membina mcm Hollywood stars kan..hmmm~ they should all learn how..] Sandra Bullock was dressed in a bbbeeeaaauuutttiiifffuuulllll Marchesa gold embroided and beaded gown...with minimal accessories but her make up is soooo niiicceeee...love the hot pink lipstick okeh...hehehe comelsss...tapi this year's Oscars red carpets are not as fun to watch as they're missing some key person who makes it so exciting...Nicole Kidman did not attend, Angeline jolie n Brad Pitt awal2 dah cakap tamau dtg..Tom Cruise pun xde...hmmmm Charlize Theron pakai baju x cantek...tapi Cameron Diaz cun...hehee below are some of the pics from Oscars' red carpet...enjoy!

The Winner!

The rest of the contenders

Cameron Diaz [typical Oscar de la Renta]

Queen Latifah [loves the colour]

Rachel Mc Adams [unique! in Elie Saab]

Demi Moore [in Atelier Versace..love the colour]

Anna Kendrick [another Vercase number..loves the lace at the bottom..sexyh!]

I find that Indian vegetarian food is not my cup of tea...xminat sgt la..it tasted funny in the mouth and tummy...i ordered a plate of Mushroom Briyani that comes together with the dish called "baingan bartha"...some sort of weird looking curry...sgt pekat okeh..and saye xsuke..huhuuu~ so, i curik siket some of Filzah's curry consists of cottage cheese and some Indian spices...haaaa seb baek yg ini sedap...i was able to finish my dish tapi alaaahaaaiii dugaan betol...huhuuu~

Fiza and most of my colleagues ordered Saravana specialties and Banana Leaf dish which was served on curry leaf...gile traditional babe! heeee their dishes consist of various lauk pauk in small quantity...tapi sume mcm pelik2...muahaha and they also taste funny lah...and not only that...air die pun ade yg pelik2...haha adehhh laaa tak minat saye..huhuuu~ i dunno..some people might like them tapi definitely not for me.
